    Default Is this a -EV call??

    Figured that I only have $200 invested, I could lose another $400 here if I call this. If he holds Q9, I'm losing quite a bit of my stack, with a split at best if he doesn't have Q9 and only has a 9...

    i think id still call... youre getting 3-1 at this point and you beat everything but Q9... thats a weird one

    he could just be repping the straight or he could have TT - you get a lot of fish that early

    I think givememyleg is right.. check calling would have been the better play.. I guess the hand from my $3 rebuy screwed me up a bit... had 77, flop came 689, turn 10, got it all in thinking it is a split (but there was over 8k to be split) and he had JQ for the nuts...
